Coolin' By Sound
DUMB THINGS - Time Again LP
$35.95
Includes d/l code.
A new and assured take on the sun-dappled pop of their debut, the songs on Time Again pull off that all-too-rare feat of being immediately accessible, but still possessing hidden substance. Their distinctive slacker-jangle perfectly reflects the sub-tropical Queensland climate, bright and carefree and shimmering, quick to shrug off the occasional wistful and melancholy overtones. Owing a sonic debt not just to Queensland forebears like The Go-Betweens and The Apartments but also the next wave of Aussie bands who also mined that same fertile ground for inspiration like Dick Diver, Twerps and The Ocean Party.
